This thought occured to me this morning and wanted to bounce off. Feel free to trash it if it is not practical.
I have seen somewhat lukewarm response to Fund raising and I feel there is potential to multiply the effect.
If there is a way for IV to match up clients and IV members for part time efforts and the revenue going to IV, I think it will have bigger impact in terms of fund generation.
How it can work?
Assuming core team and extended leadership team at IV has networked into the Industry, it can get pieces of work carved out. These deliverables are those that can be collaborated on, worked on remotely.
These need not be necassarily in IT. It could be in advertising, acocuonting, graphic designing etc.
IV will seek volunteers interested in participating in this initiative and build skills database and try matching up with the services required.
All the revenue from such services will go to IV.
For IVians who volunteer, besides satisfaction of contributing to the cause, industry networking is a nice offshoot.
This may be my opinion, but volunteering is easy if it is something you do as your second nature.
I have seen few non-profit organizations provide services for a fee. I am not sure what restrictions are placed on IV from a taxation point of view. But over time, the fund raising wing of IV could be delivering on some niche solutions. I am sure some sympathetic corporations would be supporting by providing work.

Friends,
Does anyone know if people who've filed for I-485 can claim unemployment insurance?......The client where I was working cancelled my project due to budget cuts :(....I was wondering if I can claim unemployment till I find a new job. Does any one know any non-desi companies hiring in the Michigan, Ohio, Illinois or Midwest in general?.....I am PMI certified Project Manager with J2EE background. Any prompt help would be highly appreciated.
Michigan state DIT is hiring J2EE candidates. Recently few people joined the state. Try with the state.

Kevin,
It's no different using the future employment EAD from that of a current employment EAD. However, I would suggest you work for that future employment company for say 6 months before you use AC21 and move on to a different job. This would alleviate the risk of INS considering your case to be fradulent.

Hi,
I am a green card holder via the DV program of 2007 and my husband is on student visa. We had entered US individually prior to our marriage. Our marriage took place back in Nepal in 2008 and considering the long waiting period for the dates to become current, I didn't file I-130 for my husband immediately after our marrigage thinking that we would wait for my citizenship. But now seeing the advancement in the current dates for Family based visa, I would like to file the I-130 for my husband. Please advise what my best bet would be? Wait until I get my citizenship or file now? Also if I file now, how long might it take for him to get his EAD and GC?
Can I file the I-130 form on my own for would need to get a lawyer for that. Currenlty we are in Seattle, Washington.
Any suggestions will be highly appreciated.
What you did is a mistake. No need to wait for citizenship. You can upgrade the petition any time.
NOW FOR BRINGING SPOUSE FOR GC HOLDERS IS SIX MONTHS.
SO RUSH TO FILE I-130 FOR HIM. IF HE IS HERE, FILE I-485, WHEN THE DATE BECOME CURRENT (AFTER 6 MONTHS), OR GO FOR CONSULAR PROCESS. NO NEED FOR A LAWYER FOR FAMILY BASED FILING. DOWNLOAD I-130 FORM WITH INSTRUCTIONS, FILLUP AND SEND WITH MARRIAGE, BIRTH CERTIFICATES AND OTHER DOCUMENTS. IF YOU CAN READ AND WRITE ENGLISH, YOU CAN FILL IT AND SEND IT.

Helllo Experts,
Here is my Case:
Have 4 yrs of work experience and changed 3 employers in the past.
1 st employer: Worked as a Programmer Analyst for 6 months
2nd employer: Worked as Sr.Software Engineer for1.6 years
3rd Employer: Worked as Sr.Software Engineer for 2 years
Under unexpected circumstances, 2nd employer filed my H1 for a senior level even when I have only 2.5 yrs of experience.
I am trying to change job and look for a prospective employer who would file my labor/GC immediately.
The 4rth employer is willing to my GC but the Job designation will be Software Engineer.
Can you please advise if there would be any negative impact on my GC process if I take a step down in my title.
I liked the organization, work environment and all I am concerned now is about any RFC's for the different Job Titles I had so far.
I am in a very confused state and Please advise me as I need to respond for the Job offer.
I sincerely appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Ravi

Please find below my case details:
i.Started on L1A in Dec 2001
ii.Applied for a new H1 in June 2005 with start date as Oct 1,2005(New H1 application) : Came to US on H1 in Mar 2006 with "I 94 and Petition End Date(PED)" as Dec 2007.
iii.Since Dec 2001 till Mar 2006, have been in India for totalling 10 months (2.5 months in 2003, 1.5 months 2004, 6 months during 2005-2006).
With the assumption that I can recapture the time spent outside US (10 months), the six year clock ends in Oct 2008. If so, to get 7th year extension
would it work as long as the Labour is filed before Oct 2007.
Am I correct in this assessment or does the 6 year clock indeed ends in "Dec 2007" (as in my I94/PED) and I should have the Labour filed before Dec 2006.
Any thoughts? Appreciate your comments.
Thanks very much in advance.
you have enough time to get started with your labor. earlier the better. have your company start your labor in a couple of months so that do dont have to worry about all the nitty gritties of recapture of time. yes one can recapture the time with a petition. less legal work is less money paid and less headache in my opinion.

and it's still valid for almost 2 years.
If, say, I find another employer in a few months, can I use the visa that I have now?
If so, can I start working for that employer once he files a new petition, or do I have to wait until the new approval notice?

Thank you frostrated for your reply!
I have valid H-1 visa to re-enter US. My visa is valid till Dec 2011. I already got that stamped when i went to india last year.
So I shouldn't run into any problems at the port of entry, even if my AP gets approved while I am out of the country, right? Thanks so much for taking time to answer.
yeah, you should have no problems. Take a copy of your I-485 papers with you too. But do not show unless they ask. You will exit and re-enter in H1 status.

I agree with Anders. Diagonals are always a nice draw for the eye. Also, a little more DoF would be nice because the bottom right of the leaf is just creeping out of the focal plane. Cool leaf texture, good choice of subject.

But the July 2nd decision was reversed later. Why did they not file then?
Besides, companies do not need to pay for 485. Makes no sense for them to pay for something that they do not have to.
On a separate note, does anyone know of any company which has discontinued GC processing because the new rule states the employer has to pay for PERM?
That's our company policy(1 year bond of course)
BTW they did file after July17th.:o

My case: Perm Approved, I140 approved last year, long wait for I485. I have (had) 3 years extension till 2013
My company's lawyer was supposed to revoke H1 of say (name changed) Venkatesh Natarajan and they by mistake revoked mine because of similarity of name(Vedant Narayanan). This happened in July and got approved in August (see below for details). The day my company got to know a wrong employee's H1 was revoked they filed for reinstatement.
Here are the chronological events
Date on which my H1 revocation notice was sent to USCIS: 7/28/2010
Date on which USCIS agreed to revoke my H1: USCIS says they got our letter of revocation on 8/15/2010, but their letter was dated 9/27/2010
Date when my employer was informed by lawyer's office about revocation: 10/24/2010
Date when my company filed for reinstatement of my H1, with pre-paid FedEx packet for USCIS to use with a reply: 10/25/2010. The USCIS has not responded to this letter.
Currently the action being taken is that they are in a process to file a new H1B as a backup, if USCIS doesn't reply to the letter or if they say that revocation process can't be undone.
I read about this nunc-pro-tunc provision. Do you think my new premium H1B should be filed with the nunc-pro-tunc provision? So that my new H1 is backdated from the day it was revoked.

MurthyDotCom : Eligibility under Sections 245(i) & 245(k) for AOS (http://www.murthy.com/adjsta.html)
Section 245(k)
Section 245(k) enables a person who is adjusting status in an employment-based category (whether on the basis of a labor certification or in one of the special Green Card categories that does not require a labor certification or job offer) to adjust, even if s/he has been out of status or worked without authorization for less than 180 days. This provision does not require an immigrant petition or labor certification to have been filed on or before any particular date and there is also no penalty fee involved.
Will this 180 days 245(k) clause help me in anyway?
How should we tackle this situation. Is there any other options that we can try, any phone number we can call? Any way we can ask USCIS to undo the revocation? Any suggestions/pointers appreciated.
Thanks
